It’s a neat curiosity, but it’s not $100 neat

Nah, the 90s were the early days of the internet being popular, with AOL launching their internet service in 1991 and even The Today Show talking about the internet in 1994. While 2002-internet isn’t the same as today’s internet, it was far from the early days by that point.

That’s a good one! Gnome is the Windows 8 of the Linux world, and the devs tend to intentionally break the extension system between major releases. It’s truly baffling how the group that made Gnome 2.x continue to hate most of the Linux userbase so much.

Starship Troopers is weird because the book went full on in embracing the military-industrial complex and was kind of shit because of it. The movie made it a parody instead and it worked great!
…then they made a few sequels that yeah were more in line with the original book but in this case is that really a good thing?

I came here to comment Sir Terry Pratchett’s works as well! They’re all really good while also poking fun at fantasy tropes
